unify {de,}mangle_poll(), get rid of kernel-side POLL...

2018-02-11T22:37:22+00:00

except, again, POLLFREE and POLL_BUSY_LOOP. With this, we finally get to the promised end result: - POLL{IN,OUT,...} are plain integers and *not* in __poll_t, so any stray instances of ->poll() still using those will be caught by sparse. - eventpoll.c and select.c warning-free wrt __poll_t - no more kernel-side definitions of POLL... - userland ones are visible through the entire kernel (and used pretty much only for mangle/demangle) - same behavior as after the first series (i.e. sparc et.al. epoll(2) working correctly).

Pull libnvdimm updates from Ross Zwisler: - Require struct page by default for filesystem DAX to remove a number of surprising failure cases. This includes failures with direct I/O, gdb and fork(2). - Add support for the new Platform Capabilities Structure added to the NFIT in ACPI 6.2a. This new table tells us whether the platform supports flushing of CPU and memory controller caches on unexpected power loss events. - Revamp vmem_altmap and dev_pagemap handling to clean up code and better support future future PCI P2P uses. - Deprecate the ND_IOCTL_SMART_THRESHOLD command whose payload has become out-of-sync with recent versions of the NVDIMM_FAMILY_INTEL spec, and instead rely on the generic ND_CMD_CALL approach used by the two other IOCTL families, NVDIMM_FAMILY_{HPE,MSFT}. - Enhance nfit_test so we can test some of the new things added in version 1.6 of the DSM specification. This includes testing firmware download and simulating the Last Shutdown State (LSS) status. * tag 'libnvdimm-for-4.16' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/nvdimm/nvdimm: (37 commits) libnvdimm, namespace: remove redundant initialization of 'nd_mapping' acpi, nfit: fix register dimm error handling libnvdimm, namespace: make min namespace size 4K tools/testing/nvdimm: force nfit_test to depend on instrumented modules libnvdimm/nfit_test: adding support for unit testing enable LSS status libnvdimm/nfit_test: add firmware download emulation nfit-test: Add platform cap support from ACPI 6.2a to test libnvdimm: expose platform persistence attribute for nd_region acpi: nfit: add persistent memory control flag for nd_region acpi: nfit: Add support for detect platform CPU cache flush on power loss device-dax: Fix trailing semicolon libnvdimm, btt: fix uninitialized err_lock dax: require 'struct page' by default for filesystem dax ext2: auto disable dax instead of failing mount ext4: auto disable dax instead of failing mount mm, dax: introduce pfn_t_special() mm: Fix devm_memremap_pages() collision handling mm: Fix memory size alignment in devm_memremap_pages_release() memremap: merge find_dev_pagemap into get_dev_pagemap memremap: change devm_memremap_pages interface to use struct dev_pagemap ...

Pull clk updates from Stephen Boyd: "The core framework has a handful of patches this time around, mostly due to the clk rate protection support added by Jerome Brunet. This feature will allow consumers to lock in a certain rate on the output of a clk so that things like audio playback don't hear pops when the clk frequency changes due to shared parent clks changing rates. Currently the clk API doesn't guarantee the rate of a clk stays at the rate you request after clk_set_rate() is called, so this new API will allow drivers to express that requirement. Beyond this, the core got some debugfs pretty printing patches and a couple minor non-critical fixes. Looking outside of the core framework diff we have some new driver additions and the removal of a legacy TI clk driver. Both of these hit high in the dirstat. Also, the removal of the asm-generic/clkdev.h file causes small one-liners in all the architecture Kbuild files. Overall, the driver diff seems to be the normal stuff that comes all the time to fix little problems here and there and to support new hardware. Summary: Core: - Clk rate protection - Symbolic clk flags in debugfs output - Clk registration enabled clks while doing bookkeeping updates New Drivers: - Spreadtrum SC9860 - HiSilicon hi3660 stub - Qualcomm A53 PLL, SPMI clkdiv, and MSM8916 APCS - Amlogic Meson-AXG - ASPEED BMC Removed Drivers: - TI OMAP 3xxx legacy clk (non-DT) support - asm*/clkdev.h got removed (not really a driver) Updates: - Renesas FDP1-0 module clock on R-Car M3-W - Renesas LVDS module clock on R-Car V3M - Misc fixes to pr_err() prints - Qualcomm MSM8916 audio fixes - Qualcomm IPQ8074 rounded out support for more peripherals - Qualcomm Alpha PLL variants - Divider code was using container_of() on bad pointers - Allwinner DE2 clks on H3 - Amlogic minor data fixes and dropping of CLK_IGNORE_UNUSED - Mediatek clk driver compile test support - AT91 PMC clk suspend/resume restoration support - PLL issues fixed on si5351 - Broadcom IProc PLL calculation updates - DVFS support for Armada mvebu CPU clks - Allwinner fixed post-divider support - TI clkctrl fixes and support for newer SoCs" * tag 'clk-for-linus' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/clk/linux: (125 commits) clk: aspeed: Handle inverse polarity of USB port 1 clock gate clk: aspeed: Fix return value check in aspeed_cc_init() clk: aspeed: Add reset controller clk: aspeed: Register gated clocks clk: aspeed: Add platform driver and register PLLs clk: aspeed: Register core clocks clk: Add clock driver for ASPEED BMC SoCs clk: mediatek: adjust dependency of reset.c to avoid unexpectedly being built clk: fix reentrancy of clk_enable() on UP systems clk: meson-axg: fix potential NULL dereference in axg_clkc_probe() clk: Simplify debugfs registration clk: Fix debugfs_create_*() usage clk: Show symbolic clock flags in debugfs clk: renesas: r8a7796: Add FDP clock clk: Move __clk_{get,put}() into private clk.h API clk: sunxi: Use CLK_IS_CRITICAL flag for critical clks clk: Improve flags doc for of_clk_detect_critical() arch: Remove clkdev.h asm-generic from Kbuild clk: sunxi-ng: a83t: Add M divider to TCON1 clock clk: Prepare to remove asm-generic/clkdev.h ...

2018-01-31T01:58:07+00:00

Pull poll annotations from Al Viro: "This introduces a __bitwise type for POLL### bitmap, and propagates the annotations through the tree. Most of that stuff is as simple as 'make ->poll() instances return __poll_t and do the same to local variables used to hold the future return value'. Some of the obvious brainos found in process are fixed (e.g. POLLIN misspelled as POLL_IN). At that point the amount of sparse warnings is low and most of them are for genuine bugs - e.g. ->poll() instance deciding to return -EINVAL instead of a bitmap. I hadn't touched those in this series - it's large enough as it is. Another problem it has caught was eventpoll() ABI mess; select.c and eventpoll.c assumed that corresponding POLL### and EPOLL### were equal. That's true for some, but not all of them - EPOLL### are arch-independent, but POLL### are not. The last commit in this series separates userland POLL### values from the (now arch-independent) kernel-side ones, converting between them in the few places where they are copied to/from userland. AFAICS, this is the least disruptive fix preserving poll(2) ABI and making epoll() work on all architectures. As it is, it's simply broken on sparc - try to give it EPOLLWRNORM and it will trigger only on what would've triggered EPOLLWRBAND on other architectures. EPOLLWRBAND and EPOLLRDHUP, OTOH, are never triggered at all on sparc. With this patch they should work consistently on all architectures" * 'misc.poll' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/viro/vfs: (37 commits) make kernel-side POLL... arch-independent eventpoll: no need to mask the result of epi_item_poll() again eventpoll: constify struct epoll_event pointers debugging printk in sg_poll() uses %x to print POLL... bitmap annotate poll(2) guts 9p: untangle ->poll() mess ->si_band gets POLL... bitmap stored into a user-visible long field ring_buffer_poll_wait() return value used as return value of ->poll() the rest of drivers/*: annotate ->poll() instances media: annotate ->poll() instances fs: annotate ->poll() instances ipc, kernel, mm: annotate ->poll() instances net: annotate ->poll() instances apparmor: annotate ->poll() instances tomoyo: annotate ->poll() instances sound: annotate ->poll() instances acpi: annotate ->poll() instances crypto: annotate ->poll() instances block: annotate ->poll() instances x86: annotate ->poll() instances ...
